According to ‘ahem’ Google, the main difference between a Typhoon and a Tempest 1 was in the wing, much thinner cross section on the Tempest, so a bit difficult to tell from just the fuselage. Both aircraft fitted with a Napier Sabre engine, 37 ltr, liquid cooled, sleeve valved, H24!

It looked worse than a bald head ever would. and just to keep to the rules, here’s my mate’s dachshund
